Presence of 20th and 21st century

After the First World War, the monastery was leased to the Slovak Tourist and Ski Club in Prešov. A tourist hostel was established on the premises, and with the support of the state and the Spiš Historical Society, several of the monastery buildings were restored.

A major reconstruction of the monastery complex took place between 1956 and 1966, with restoration work continuing partially into the 1980s. In 2007, the first phase of the extensive restoration of the Church of St. Anthony the Hermit was completed, after which the church was opened to the public as part of the museum exhibition.

The first museum exhibition at the monastery was established by the East Slovak Museum in Košice, which opened it to the public on 5 June 1966. Between 2001 and 2007, the monastery also hosted an exhibition presented by the Ľubovňa Museum in Stará Ľubovňa.

Following its restoration, the monastery buildings were primarily used as an outdoor education centre for children from western Slovakia, especially from Bratislava. Entire generations of children spent several weeks here attending nature schools, ski courses, and summer camps.

Since 2008, visitors have been able to explore the current museum exhibition, established by the Monuments Board of the Slovak Republic after the monastery came under its administration, in cooperation with CYPRIAN, n.o. and the East Slovak Museum in Košice.

Today, the monastery complex also features a historically furnished 18th-century tavern, a museum shop offering handcrafted souvenirs and monastery herbal products, and monastery-style accommodation for visitors.

Every year, the museum organises a rich programme of events, including concerts, educational activities, lectures, as well as the popular Monastery Cultural Summer and, at the end of the season, the Monastery Days festival.
